[Libguestfs] [virt-tools-list] libguestfs for Windows guests?

[Jonathan E. Brickman]

Finally what you said percolated through the layers of flint around my 
mind :-)  'libguestfs' is in the AUR, not in the repos; although its 
label is "Manages virtual machine images", I'll think it is possibly 
mislabeled, will try it.
